    A new county notice highlights a proposed path to homeownership in Peters Township.

    Franklin County’s September 29 notice outlines a Habitat for Humanity project on Main Street in Fort Loudon: a planned three-bedroom, two-bath ranch home. The county anticipates requesting the release of $60,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds for property acquisition on or about October 19.

    The proposed home would serve a low-to-moderate-income family. The notice estimates a total project cost of $295,000, with acquisition expected in 2026 and construction completion expected in 2029. This is a planned project, not a completed home or an active listing.

    What it means for your home search

    Local housing news offers useful context as you explore Franklin County. For your own search, compare available homes, total monthly costs, and financing options with your lender. This proposal alone does not establish a change in countywide prices or inventory.
